Turn long videos into short clips and schedule them to social media

Upload one long video and the system cuts several short clips, then schedules them across TikTok, Reels, and Shorts.

How the work actually flows

It branches. Every path runs; runs once per one per highlight clip.

The problem it solves

Cutting a long video or podcast into short, engaging clips takes hours of scrubbing back and forth, picking the right moments, and manually posting them one platform at a time. Keeping up a daily posting habit on top of that is nearly impossible alone.

Who it fits

Content creators, agencies, or brands who want a steady stream of short-form clips from long-form video without editing each one by hand.

How it works

  1. You upload a long video through a simple form
  2. The system transcribes it word-for-word for precise timing
  3. AI finds the most engaging moments and writes titles and descriptions for each
  4. It cuts and crops the clips to fit each platform
  5. Clips are scheduled to post one per day across TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts
What you get

Clips reaching new viewers on autopilot

You upload one long video and get several short clips cut, titled, and scheduled across TikTok, Reels, and Shorts.

What you get

Several ready-to-post short clips with titles and descriptions, scheduled across your social accounts.

What you need

Accounts for OpenAI Whisper transcription, Google Gemini, and an Upload-Post subscription.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
